Harry Kane Signs New Six-Year Contract With Tottenham

Harry Kane has agreed a new six-year contract with Tottenham, the North London club announced on Friday.

The England captain’s previous deal, which he signed in 2016, ran until the summer of 2022 but Spurs have tied him to a longer contract before they move into their new 62,000 seater stadium next season.

The striker scored 41 in 48 appearances for Tottenham last season bringing his total to 140 goals since he made his debut in 2011.

The 24-year-old finished the 2017 calendar year as the top goalscorer in European football with 56 goals for club and country, as well as breaking Alan Shearer’s record for the most Premier League goals scored in a calendar year, recording 39 in total.

Kane, who has been included in the PFA Premier League Team of the Year for the last four seasons, is also a previous winner of the PFA Young Player of the Year in 2015 and has won the Premier League Golden Boot on two occasions.
